From that perspective I can see your reasoning for wanting to track current in.

The way I was looking at it .... you start the boost as soon as you start tapping the battery to essentially try to keep it charged, or at least to keep the pack voltage from dropping too fast. This would keep you in the +3 bar range longer, and as Pete showed the 3 bar bug will hold well past 20Ah of discharge. However using the booster pack as a charger you would need to be careful of overcharging the main pack, or is there a safeguard built into the system to avoid this?
